2026-03-20 20:30:52The plane touched down smoothly at JFK, the final shudder of the landing gear vibrating through the cabin.
My lashes fluttered.Consciousness floated up from a dreamless sleep.I'd slept like the dead, sunk in something warm and soft as clouds.I blinked awake and realized my forehead was pressed against the curve of Alexander's neck.The hand that had been warming my stomach was now draped loosely around me, tucking me halfway into his hold.The blanket was wrap

Ethan's head spun. A vein bulged at his temple.She dared to call him that?He instinctively took it as a vicious insult, payback for the things he'd hurled at her back at the cove."Lisa!"His voice came out as a low growl. His fists clenched tight at his sides.He wanted to grab her, force her to explain. He wanted to wipe that infuriating mark off her neck.But when he met her mocking eyes, the pent-up fury deflated like a punctured balloon.What right did he even have?"You're calling me that?"His voice was hoarse.---"Think whatever you want."I didn't bother looking at him again. My eyes fixed on the glowing red numbers above the elevator doors.Ethan's chest tightened, choked by my indifference.The rage that had nowhere to go was forced down.All that was left was a burning ache in his gut. Sour. Weak."Lisa. These three days you didn't come to the office... was it because of me?"He pause
His Dad Calls Me Baby Chapter 060: Compensation for Last Night?
Copying sutras?Last time, he’d done it with such ruthless focus because desire had burned inside him with no release.Copying scriptures had been the only way to force down the urge to pin her right on the pages and take her apart.But last night, she’d calmed that restlessness at its core in a different way.It hadn’t been fully settled, no.But it had been enough to douse the raging fire in his chest.So today, he had no need to rely on self-deceptive scriptures.But could he actually tell her that?Alexander set his coffee cup down and lifted his gaze."Copying sutras is an old method. Inefficient."His voice was low, slower than usual, every word deliberate.I raised an eyebrow, intrigued."Oh? So you’ve found a better way, Mr. Knight? And it worked that quickly?"Alexander’s gaze slid from my face to my right hand, resting on the edge of my bowl."The results are promising."

I stormed into the bathroom still fuming.On the marble counter, next to a full set of untouched luxury skincare products, sat several neatly arranged boxes of tampons in various sizes.I grabbed a box and walked back to the bathroom door, leaning against the doorframe.I held up the box and shook it at him."Mr. Knight. You keep these stocked at home at all times?""After your last stay, the house manager added a full set of women's essentials."Alexander tied the belt of his robe, looked up, and caught the surprise on my face.He added,"Better safe than sorry."Something tapped softly against my chest.The house manager stocked them?He approved it?Or did he order it himself?"Your house manager is incredibly thorough, Mr. Knight."I turned and tossed the box back onto the counter.The bathroom was soon filled with the sound of running water.When I finished cleaning up and walked out, I was back in
His Dad Calls Me Baby Chapter 058: Don't Stop
After what felt like an eternity, the car rolled to a silent stop.The driver's voice rumbled low through the partition."Mr. Knight, we've arrived."The arm coiled tight around my waist finally slackened.Alexander slowly sat up straight, pinching the bridge of his nose. The haze of alcohol in his eyes seemed to clear slightly, or maybe just dig deeper.He didn't look at me. He just opened the door and stepped out.I followed.The evening air hit my face, cooling some of the heat still burning under my skin.Alexander stood by the car, his silhouette stretching long under the streetlights. His stance wavered just slightly.He turned and held out his hand to me.Palm up.The posture still carried that habitual command of a man used to giving orders. The message was clear:he still needed steadying.I looked at his outstretched hand, then at his eyes, which had sharpened back to something close to sober.My molars ground
His Dad Calls Me Baby Chapter 057: Taking Advantage While Drunk?
The call ended abruptly.I stared at my phone, frowning slightly.Luke Cole?That notorious playboy friend of Alexander's?He wanted me to head to a bar right now and pick someone up?Alexander was drunk?The thought barely crossed my mind before I dismissed it.Someone with that level of self-control would never let himself get to the point where someone had to come collect him.This had Luke's prank written all over it.Whatever. I'd go.Besides, I hadn't seen that ice sculpture of a man in three days.It was the perfect excuse to show up, make my presence known, and stay on his radar.---Alexander came back from the bathroom.He sat down and noticed his phone had been moved from the couch to the coffee table.He shot a look at Luke."You touch my phone?"His voice was cold, roughened by whiskey.Luke clamped a cigar between his teeth, a shit-eating grin spreading across his face."Took

Every word I'd said hit Song right in the chest.She sucked in a sharp breath.Then she grinned, excitement flickering in her eyes."So we just sit tight? Watch her dig her own grave? Wait for her to show her hand?""Exactly."I leaned back in my chair."Winnie's the type who never knows when to stop. Thinks she's smarter than everyone else.""With the Breaking Free exhibit coming up, she won't be able to help herself. She'll touch the one wire she shouldn't.""All we have to do is make sure the opportunity lands right in front of her. Quietly."Song rubbed her hands together."Should we set something up? Lay a trap? Dangle some bait?"I shook my head."We just do what we're supposed to do. Let everything else play out.""The wind will blow her where she needs to go."---That night, The Lounge rooftop bar overlooked the city lights sprawling below.Alexander sat deep in a velvet couch, legs crossed.
